Dear Ed,
I have often similar problems like You.
My solution is not ideal, but I hope, it helps You a bit:
\version "2.16.2"
globalA = {
\time 4/4 s1
}
globalB = {
\time 3/4 s2.
\time 4/4 s1
\time 5/4 s4*5
}
globalC = {
\time 4/4 s1
}
global = {
\globalA
\globalB
\globalC
}
firstStaff = \relative c' {
c4 d e f
c4 d e
c4 d e f
c4 d e f g
c,1.
}
secondStaff = {
\clef bass
c1
$(mmrest-of-length globalB)
c1.
}
\score {
<<
\new Devnull \global
\new StaffGroup <<
\new Staff \firstStaff
\new Staff \secondStaff
>>
>>
}
\version 2.16.2
